Summary:
Please be advised that Eurex Repo plans to introduce two mandatory F7 releases in 2019. We hereby provide you with the planned release schedule with remarks on these upgrades, to enable you to plan your activities and resources for 2019.
As usual, we will provide preliminary (for Mandatory) and simulation release notes before simulation with full details of the release contents in separate communications for each release. Please note that the above schedule and dates are subject to change.
Optional Releases
Optional releases can include new functionality in the F7 user interface (GUI) to support new products, segments or additional functionalities on existing segments and products. These releases will not impact member or vendor developed software, however they may contain optional enhancements to the F7 programmable interface (API) that customers may choose to implement on their own timelines.
Mandatory Releases
Mandatory releases can include new functionality in the F7 API to support new products, segments or additional functionalities on existing segments and products. These releases will impact member or vendor developed software and will require at minimum a recompilation of the XML Schema definitions (XSDs).
Changes to Technical Requirements
Changes to technical requirements (browser upgrades, library changes) will normally be made in combination with a mandatory release and full details will always be communicated in the preliminary and final release notes.
Kind regards,
Your Eurex Repo Team
